Default Interior Progress!

First of all I have to say Sandy at Vette Essentials does BEAUTIFUL work!! The seats look amazing and I couldn't be happier. The rest of the interior is being finished by Dennis at DoublDMods. I cant wait to see the finished product. These are crappy cell phone pictures and do not do the seats justice. Ill get you guys good pictures once I have the entire interior installed! If you have any questions on what all I did feel free to ask.

A very wise choice in going with Vette Essentials. They do top notch work and I've been very pleased with my VE interior stuff.

Wow nice. I like the design on the seats, but what's up with everyone liking white thread stitching?

It's going to get dirty and be hard to clean, won't it? This is the third thread in a row where white stitching was used.
